Search for a low-mass pseudoscalar Higgs boson produced in association with a $b\bar {b}$ pair in pp collisions at $\sqrt {s}=$8 TeV. Phys. Lett., 758(CERN-PH-EP-2015-284), 296-320. en_US dc.identifier.uri http://hdl.handle.net/1808/25115 dc.description.abstract A search is reported for a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson decaying to a pair of τ leptons, produced in association with a View the MathML sourcebb‾ pair, in the context of two-Higgs-doublet models. The results are based on pp collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1. Pseudoscalar boson masses between 25 and 80 GeV are probed. No evidence for a pseudoscalar boson is found and upper limits are set on the product of cross section and branching fraction to τ pairs between 7 and 39 pb at the 95% confidence level. This excludes pseudoscalar A bosons with masses between 25 and 80 GeV, with SM-like Higgs boson negative couplings to down-type fermions, produced in association with View the MathML sourcebb‾ pairs, in Type II, two-Higgs-doublet models. en_US dc.publisher Elsevier en_US dc.rights © 2016 The Author(s).
